Business Technology Analyst Summer Scholar

Deloitte had a very structured and planned out internship experience. There were many performance reviews, check ins, and informal feedback opportunities for me to see how I was doing and let them know what could be improved.

Business Technology Analyst Summer Scholar

May - August 2017 • Philadelphia, PA

What I liked

I really enjoyed Deloitte's professional-yet-relaxed corporate culture and their dedication to work-life balance. It was always fun and easy to meet new people and build relationships throughout the company whether I was at my client site, my home office in Philadelphia, or at internal networking events. I met some great people who I look forward to working with next year. Additionally, and I know it might be minor, but I was always happy with the speed and clarity of Deloitte's travel arrangements and reimbursements.

What I wish was different

Honestly, I don't think I'd change anything about my experience. I wish I didn't have to come back to school.

Advice

Work hard and remember to build relationships with the people around you. If you find yourself with some free time, always ask if there's something else you can help someone with.

Auditing Intern

July 2020 • Buffalo, NY

What I liked

Deloitte Buffalo is an office that truly cares about their interns and wants to see them succeed. This internship gave me more insight into the accounting world than any class at school ever did. Engagement with the interns ranged from partners to first year staff. I felt I received a very accurate and honest representation of the culture at Deloitte and what it is like to work there. They encouraged the interns to dive right into the work and ask all the questions you could think of. Overall it was a great experience and I am so excited to joint hem full time!

Program Management Offie Intern

July 2020 • Hermitage, TN

What I liked

I was grateful for the opportunity to still have an internship considering the COVID-19 circumstances. I liked the opportunity to have one-on-one virtual coffee chats with professionals as well as virtual training in different platforms.

What I wish was different

I wish the experience could have been in person.

Advice

Take advantage of opportunities to connect with upper management, as it might not be as easy once working full-time. Everyone is there to help you grow and happy to connect to answer any questions and give advice.

Summer Scholar

July 2020 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked how the experience was implemented remotely. Although it was only two weeks, I learned so many things about the consulting field and what my career would look like at Deloitte. I like that I got a mentor who was very kind and helped me network with other consultants who had similar interests to me.

What I wish was different

Since this was a unique experience that has never been done before with the pandemic, there isn't anything that I wish was different. The experience provided exceeded my expectations.

Advice

Speak to as many people as you can throughout the internship and network! Especially if you receive and accept a return offer for full-time, knowing more people in the firm will help you in the future if you are looking for a project in a specific field.

What I liked

Very cool to get incite into what consulting is and to take part in a technology implementation pitch.

What I wish was different

The internship was shortened to 2-weeks and was fully remote due to COVID-19. I wish the experience had been in person but understandable given the time.

Advice

Deloitte is all about networking so definitely start networking right away! It will help you get placed on better projects going into full-time.

Audit Intern

July 2020 • McLean, VA

What I liked

Cool experience that had to be shortened and altered due to quarantine. Deloitte did a great job of transforming a 10 week in person internship into a 2 week online experience where I felt like I still took away a lot from.

What I wish was different

I wish it could have been in person of course.

Advice

Do your best to network. It’s hard to interact online, but stay engaged.

audit & assurance staff intern

July 2020 • Parsippany-Troy Hills, NJ

What I liked

The organization of the internship and that Deloitte went out their way to schedule workshops, learning sessions, and virtual social activities.

What I wish was different

That it was not virtual and only 2 weeks, but because of Covid-19 there was really no other option

Advice

Enjoy it and do your best to stand out. In person it is easy to get lost in the crowd and virtually it is even easier. Commit to the internship; have your camera on, ask questions, sleep well the night before, test your technology, and make the best of the situation.

Audit Intern

What I liked

What I wish was different

Advice

If you want to get an accounting internship, do the Early Recruitment Program (formerly the Matching Program). It is the absolute best way to network with different accounting firms. It also makes the entire interview process a lot easier because all of the firms are on the same timeline. You will not have a situation where you have a deadline to accept an internship that falls before you have heard back from a different employer.
